According to the Holy Bible, Jesus celebrated Passover with His disciples by eating the traditional evening meal called Seder. This happened on the 14th of the first month of the religious calendar. After the meal, they went to the Garden of Gethsemane. Here, Jesus was arrested, then taken to Annas, to Caiaphas, and in the morning, to Pontius Pilate.
The 14th is Preparation Day for the high day on the 15th which is the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. If Jesus was crucified on the 14th and was in the tomb for three days and three nights, He must have resurrected on the 18th. Add 40 days, He must have ascended to Heaven on the 43rd day from crucifixion. But Pentecost is 50 days from Passover. The disciples therefore waited for 7 days for the coming of the Holy Spirit. Is that logical?
